Sanibel Sea School Summer Camp – Ages 4-6

August 7, 2023 @ 9:00 am - August 11, 2023 @ 2:00 pm

#1 Sea Fans Week

Sea fans are a beautiful variety of coral that grows in a flat branching form creating mesmerizing patterns like veins on a leaf. Attached at their base, sea fans bend and sway in the ebb and flow of the rolling sea. Orange, purple, yellow, and red. Each tiny polyp sticks its feathery tentacles out to catch plankton floating by in the water. This week we’re taking lessons from sea fans by slowing down, planting our feet in the sand, and enjoying the push and pull of the water. We’ll do some slow flow and soul floats and use recycled nets to print their astonishing branching patterns on natural materials. If you’re a big fan of the ocean, then this week is definitely for you!
